Audio/Video for Practice

This page has links to download lyric sheets and audio files for song taught in classes & workshops.  Each table is grouped by class/workshop heading, with songs listed alphabetically.  Scroll down to find your workshop.

Each song has multiple files corresponding to the vocal parts. The featured part can be heard prominently on the left channel, with the other parts audible on the right channel. When available, I’ve included spoken text and links to audio and video sources for performance examples.
